Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
